statement
TRANSdiciplinarie mutant creature. Renegade of social norms, good taste and the Faculty of Arts at the Autonomous University of Baja California. I have been experimenting for a few years with the construction of spaces ─a little safer─ for the free sharing of knowledge, the (re)creative magic and the Dionysian rebellions of the diverse-dissident community in Tijuana. At the moment I am betting on the many pedagogies of action art as a living, sensitive and transformative practice in a world of capitalist cruelty. I am very intrigued by the end of these chaotic times and the different tools that from critical curiosity, radical tenderness and armed community we can forge to make it happen!
